Fund Description
Under normal conditions, Brown Advisory LLC (the “Adviser”) seeks to achieve the Fund’s investment objective by investing at least 80% of the value of its net assets (plus any borrowings for investment purposes) in equity securities that satisfy the Fund’s sustainable investment criteria. The Fund invests primarily in securities of large market capitalization companies that the Adviser deems to meet its “value” and “sustainable investment” criteria, collectively the “Investment Criteria” for the Fund. Large market capitalization companies are, according to the Adviser, those companies with market capitalizations generally greater than $3 billion at the time of purchase. The market capitalizations of the companies in the Fund’s portfolio changes over time; the Fund will not automatically sell or cease to purchase stock of a company it already owns just because the company’s market capitalization falls outside this range.
Equity securities include common stock, preferred stock, equity-equivalent securities such as convertible securities, stock futures contracts, equity options, other investment companies, American Depositary Receipts (“ADRs”), real estate investment trusts (“REITs”) and exchange traded funds (“ETFs”). The Fund may also invest in private placements in these types of securities. The Fund may invest in ETFs that have an investment objective similar to the Fund’s or that otherwise are permitted investments with the Fund’s investment policies described herein. ADRs are equity securities traded on U.S. securities exchanges, which are generally issued by banks or trust companies to evidence ownership of foreign equity securities. The Fund may invest up to 20% of its assets in foreign securities, including in emerging markets. Emerging market countries for these purposes consists of countries in Latin America, Asia, Eastern Europe, Africa and the Middle East, and include, among other countries, Brazil, China, Hong Kong, India, Indonesia and Taiwan.
The Adviser defines “value” as durable free cash flow businesses that exhibit capital discipline and trade at attractive free cashflow yields. The Fund invests primarily in equity securities that trade in the U.S. securities markets and that the Adviser believes are undervalued, broadly defined as trading at a discount to the estimated economic value of a company’s underlying business. The Adviser uses a research-driven analysis that results in the Fund’s portfolio having an emphasis on out-of-favor, cash-generating companies with durable business models, strong finances, competent management and a demonstrable record of prudent capital allocation. The Fund may also invest in cyclical companies or companies that have experienced a temporary setback if the valuation of the company is at an appropriate discount to the long-term earnings potential of the company.
The Adviser defines its sustainable investment criteria as companies that have sustainability characteristics that may improve their financial position and have strong management of sustainability-related risks. The Adviser looks for companies with Sustainable Cash Flow Advantage (“SCFA”) over time. SCFA is part of the broader research process. A majority of the Fund will consist of securities with established or emerging SCFA. SCFA’s have one or more of the following drivers:
•People: For example:
•Attraction, retention and internal promotion of employees drives cost savings while also creating a cultural advantage.
•Leadership on diversity, equity and inclusion has the potential to serve as both a mechanism for improved employee management and generation of revenue tied to innovation.
•Process: For example:
•Sound operations that promote a safe and healthy community can bolster franchise value, while also avoiding regulatory and reputational risk.
•Margin improvement through operations that save costs and resources, enabling meaningful reduction in carbon emissions and natural capital.
•Product: For example:
•Products or services that provide superior customer outcomes resulting in recurring revenue while also providing environmental and/or social solutions.
Additionally, the Adviser pursues strategic engagement with companies and other stakeholders in an effort to enhance due diligence and monitor the investment thesis, including emerging SCFA.
The Adviser considers each proxy voting proposal related to holdings in the Fund on its own merits and an independent determination is made based on the relevant facts and circumstances, in consideration of the Adviser’s current Proxy Voting Policy.
In order to respond to adverse market, economic, political, or other conditions, the Fund may assume a temporary defensive position that is inconsistent with its investment objective and principal investment strategy and invest without limit in cash and prime quality cash equivalents such as prime commercial paper and other money market instruments. A defensive position, taken at the wrong time, may have an adverse impact on the Fund’s performance. The Fund may be unable to achieve its investment objective during the employment of a temporary defensive measure.
